Soccer Skill development will focus on individual exercises and the 3 vs 3 Nuggets Soccer Game. "Youngsters need lots of contact with the ball." Nuggets Soccer allows each child to be "on the ball" for much of the time.
Developing specific skills to play soccer is ideal for older, more experienced players. But for youngsters just beginning, playing the game is what's fun - and it's also the most effective method of learning the basic skills of soccer. Kids new to the game want to run, kick, dribble, shoot, and score. Using the most fundamental elements of the game - the triangle, NUGGET SOCCER (TM) gives every child that opportunity.

Skills. Attitude. Teamwork. That's what gives top goalkeepers a competitive edge. As a Soccer Goalkeeper, you play a unique and pivotal role on the field that requires special skills, a gritty tough mindedness and the ability to work within the team environment. Because as a Soccer Goalkeeper, your responsibilities are so distinct from those of the field players, the individualized coaching you need to maximize your skills is often unavailable at team practices. The keeper is a team member and must fit into a team concept, yet the keeper's skills are in large different and require specialized training. Ultimately, the art of goalkeeping can either waste the efforts of an entire team or make a whole team better by allowing it to reach its full potential. Location: Oak Grove High School Time: 5:00 - 7:00 pm Price: $40 (2 hours)
